Expert Solution
Step 1

purchasing price = $144,000

down payment = $17,000

loan amount = $144,000 - 17,000

                        = 127,000

below is the calculation to calculate size of monthly payment

here is the formula

EMI = [p*r*(1+r)n]/[(1+r)n-1]

p = $127,000

r = 6.40/12 =0.00533

n = 30 * 12 = 360
